The Indian men's and women's hockey teams will be playing their second round encounters of the Hockey World League Semi-finals here today, facing New Zealand and Poland respectively.

The women's team, led by Ritu Rani, would be looking for a win today as a defeat will further slim their chances of booking a place in next year's Rio Olympics. The eves had last week lost their opener against Belgium 0-1.

Meanwhile, the Sardar Singh-led men's team would like to improve their performance after they struggled against minnows France for a narrow 3-2 victory.
